In this post we look at building a basic package for a run and gun style setup for your Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera.<\/h2>\n

The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera<\/a> (BMPCC) offers great image quality for under a $1000, but you will need a basic support package to get the most out of your investment.<\/p>\n

Let’s take a look at some affordable options for the single shooter, that don’t cost more than the camera itself. Want more info on the BMPCC? Check out my previous posts on lenses<\/a> and camera cages<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

RedRock Retroflex<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Redrock Micro<\/a> showed their all in one solution for the BMPCC at NAB 2014. The Retroflex ($495) consists of a grip with start\/stop control, a minimal cage with mounting brackets, and a\u00a03x optical Viewfinder (magnetic attachment). The start\/stop switch is a brilliant move that appeals to me as a run and gun shooter.<\/p>\n

At under $500 it is reasonably priced, and the retro form factor is reminiscent of the Digital Bolex<\/a>.<\/p>\n
